Use Cmd + Alt to alternate between groups. Which means Alt + Arrow allows keyboard navigation.
How to reproduce:
1. Create and open a new project
2. Click on any text field within the Editor
3. Type anything (ideally more than 3 words)
4. Hold the “Option“ key and move through the words with the arrow keys
5. Observe the active text field
Expected results: The caret (text cursor) appears behind the word
Actual results: The caret stays in the same place
Reproduced on: macOS 13.6.4 (M1, 2020)
Not reproduced on: Windows 11 Pro (23H2), No other environment tested
Notes:
If after pressing the arrow key the ”Option” key is released the caret appears where it should
If the arrow keys are pressed more times while holding the “Option“ key, the caret appears where it should (i.e. if the left arrow is pressed twice, the caret will appear two words to the left)
